Huh? You mean if I bought books from the 2-for-1 sale? But I can't even find ONE book I want in that sale!

There are actually quite a few good books in this sale. Some I already have, of course, but a couple of others I have the eBook of, but not the Audible book. There are easily 2 or 3 mysteries worth getting (all first of a series), several SFF books worth a read (sadly, I have all of these but one, and not sure I want to commit to 50 hours for it), some general fiction and non-fiction, and at least two 'cozy' mysteries very much worth a read. A quick look found (in genre order):

All of these are books worth a read, IMNSHO. Some might not be to your taste, some you might already have. But it's hard to imagine there aren't at least a couple in there you'd like to read.

They may be worth a read, but not by me. I don't read SF or romance; I don't want to start a new series because it feels like a commitment to keep going; and I don't care for the nonfiction selections. I've read a few in the thriller section, but I'm not thrilled by the choices.

No Is Not Enough:Resisting Trump’s Shock Politics and Winning the World We Need

A road map to resistance in the Trump era from internationally acclaimed journalist, activist, and bestselling author Naomi Klein…

“This book is a toolkit to help understand how we arrived at this surreal political moment, how to keep it from getting a lot worse, and how, if we keep our heads, we can flip the script and seize the opportunity to make things a whole lot better in a time of urgent need. A toolkit for shock-resistance.”—Naomi Klein, from the Preface

The election of Donald Trump is a dangerous escalation in a world of cascading crises. Trump’s vision—a radical deregulation of the U.S. economy in the interest of corporations, an all-out war on “radical Islamic terrorism,” and sweeping aside climate science to unleash a domestic fossil fuel frenzy—will generate wave after wave of crises and shocks, to the economy, to national security, to the environment.

In No Is Not Enough, Naomi Klein explains that Trump, extreme as he is, is not an aberration but a logical extension of the worst and most dangerous trends of the past half-century. In exposing the malignant forces behind Trump’s rise, she puts forward a bold vision for a mass movement to counter rising militarism, racism, and corporatism in the United States and around the world.

At the height of the air war in Europe, Captain Joe Farley and the baseball-loving, wisecracking crew of the B-17 Flying Fortress Fata Morgana are in the middle of a harrowing bombing mission over East Germany when everything goes sideways. The bombs are still falling and flak is still exploding all around the 20-ton bomber as it is knocked like a bathtub duck into another world.

Suddenly stranded with the final outcasts of a desolated world, Captain Farley navigates a maze of treachery and wonder—and finds a love seemingly decreed by fate—as his bomber becomes a pawn in a centuries-old conflict between remnants of advanced but decaying civilizations. Caught among these bitter enemies, a vast power that has brought them here for its own purposes, and a terrifying living weapon bent on their destruction, the crew must use every bit of their formidable inventiveness and courage to survive.

Fata Morgana—the epic novel of love and duty at war across the reach of time.
